Even after building stuff for the web for 7+ years, I sometimes feel like I've never really learned the basics of CS.
If anyone else also feels like that, let's start and complete Harvard's #CS50 together!
I'll try to post an update every day and keep you in the loop :)

If you didn't already know, @raycastapp has a very nice wallpaper collection built in ✨

TIL that you can use CSS grid for more advanced wrapper uses.
For example the pattern below, where you have a classic wrapper that prevents the text from spreading too wide on the left but the image on the right expands even outside the wrapper.

Finally took the plunge and completed the introductory course about regex on @Codecademy.
I feel like this is a topic that every dev dreads to learn more about. But finally learning the basics properly might help me understand these Stack Overflow answers better in the future ;)

I'm really excited that I can finally tell you about something I've been working on the past couple of weeks!
Together with @cedric_design and the relaunch of @CanvasSupply, I created three code components/overrides, that give you @framer superpowers.
Let's take a look at them!

Something's coming, I wonder what 😏 https://xcancel.com/cedric_design/status/1683828332478214144
Today I got reminded once again by a nasty code bug that I should finally bite the bullet and properly learn regex 🫣
Any tips and recommendations?
Awesome work as always 💎 https://xcancel.com/cedric_design/status/1679456533007204355
Does anyone know about a simple tool that helps you easily clean up your Twitter/YouTube/Instagram/whatever followings?
Imagining something that shows you a random account you follow and its last 3 posts and lets you decide on whether or not to keep following them.
Is there an easy mnemonic to remember how markdown links are created?
I'm always confused on whether to type []() or ()[] 🫠

Using ChatGPT as a socratic tutor seems to be one of the best possible ways that you can use it currently.
Don't let it do the work for you, use it to have a conversation and let it guide you to new thoughts, perspectives and ideas 💡

Progress update 🪄
The cmdk menu for @Framer now shows the page you're currently on in the top left. Helps quite a bit for navigating your website.
Apart from that, I'm busy fixing nasty bugs and making the component even easier to configure right inside Framer.
Stay tuned 👀
It's now possible to define custom categories and similarly categorized items are grouped together with a heading in the cmdk dialog – automagically 🪄
Kudos to @framer for not only being an awesome no code tool but actually allowing to use code where it's needed 🤗
Currently working on a ⌘ + K component for @framer 🧙
Customizeable without writing a line of code. Lil demo below 👇
Who would be interested in using this as well?
Developer tool/website discovery of the day 👇
Helps you analyze the bundle size of npm packages and even shows how long it'll take to load with different connection speeds.

The true reason for so many dirty MacBook keyboards out there (including mine 🥲) https://xcancel.com/luciascarlet/status/1673726293563588608
TIL that you can access the amount of fingers a user had on his screen when triggering an event (using TouchEvents).
By the way, can someone guess what I'm building? 👀🪄
This idea of “contextual design” seems pretty interesting 🤔 https://xcancel.com/hobdaydesign/status/1671119428291903488
React wouldn't nearly be as great as it is without the brilliant folks over @vercel
These guys constantly ship cool stuff and their marketing is just spot on.
Just a random thought, but there couldn't be a better time to create things for the web and I love it 😁
Is there a minimal MacOS app that integrates the OpenAI API into the system?
Imagining something like [select text] → [right click] → [choose prompt]
Would be great to know ✌️
🪄
Been working on a @framer override that enables navigating your site just with keyboard shortcuts. Currently works with links and the search component.
Is this something that would be useful for your own projects?
That's the sweet spot 👇 https://xcancel.com/henricreates/status/1670420490140123138
This is also my impression so far, which is great. @framer AI should be a tool that helps you generate different ideas fast, not ideate inside a predetermined look.
For moving fast, I think using ChatGPT to help generate content ideas and then move to Framer is the way to go. https://xcancel.com/JorisRood/status/1668704159959220226
Follow recommendation for today 👇 https://xcancel.com/designspells_/status/1663190974405967872
Proof that SwiftUI is the greatest prototyping tool ever invented. https://xcancel.com/raunofreiberg/status/1666122499401166873
I will always be amazed about how @github copilot makes coding a breeze. Just write a few comments at the top of a file like below and watch ai work its magic.
It's never perfect but it gets you like 90% there.
This makes learning & building so much easier, I love it 🪄
The new React docs are a true goldmine and a prime example of how good documentation looks like.
E.g., importing and exporting es modules is explained in a concise way that I've never encountered before.
It just clicks 🙌
Just @framer telling you what you should do before going to bed tonight 🪄 https://xcancel.com/dominikhofer_/status/1656381889962299392
Getting to know @framer overrides a bit better by trying out random stuff and I've honestly never been more excited about seeing the current time on a website :D
If you love to read, good books is a fantastic website for discovering great non-fiction books. And it looks absolutely gorgeous ✨

This should be the motto for all makers on the internet 👇 https://xcancel.com/cedric_design/status/1655540997571375104
If you're already using ChatGPT regularly, you'll be blown away by @perplexity_ai
It works just like the former, but with access to the internet, and actually shows you the sources of the answer for reference.
This is probably the future of search engines ✨
The best way for testing prompts by far 👇 https://xcancel.com/steventey/status/1648463337066491906
What an awesome write-up of a great idea and the power of llms 👏🏼
(The concept 🤯) https://xcancel.com/gahabeen/status/1645056489822756864
Currently working with GPT-3.5-Turbo for a project and that's already mindblowing. Excited to try out the next version!
What a time to be alive @OpenAI ✨ https://xcancel.com/steventey/status/1635740370163171350
If you want to learn about the power of LLMs and vector embeddings, this is a great place to start 👇 https://xcancel.com/StephanSturges/status/1632382961843593220
Gotta love Jordan and his SwiftUI skills 🙌 https://xcancel.com/jsngr/status/1632405969190748166
These news get even more exciting once you check out their pricing page 🤯 https://xcancel.com/OpenAI/status/1630992406542970880
That's why you should learn how to work with LLMs right now 👇 https://xcancel.com/sama/status/1627796054040285184
The nr. 1 requirement for choosing a long-term notetaking/pkm app should be whether or not it allows you to store or easily export all your notes as .txt or .md files.
That's why @obsdmd and @logseq are so awesome 🙌

Awesome execution of a movie/show recommender that actually works 🙌
Plus it‘s open-source! https://xcancel.com/steph_dietz_/status/1625888371141664768
